One of the points of the article is that “newspapers [...] hide all these horrible facts to the people”. It is no incident that we know nothing of “exclusion zones”.

I took some time this afternoon looking around for the description of Swedish Exclusion Zones and came up with 'not much' I wonder what the official Swedish phrase is and if that's the translation...(if there is even an official phrase)
The French Suburbs connections are there - wondering what the Swedish phrase equivalent is.
Someone in Sweden should translate what they are going through and get that phrase in the English language lexicon - hopefully she will be able to do that....(at least throw a wiki page up)

I think the appropriate translation is ghetto.

Europeans do not like the word.

But it is the truthful American English translation for what is described.
